Forgive me while I fill your feed with these stunning dancers! I cannot get over how gorgeous this sunrise session was. Waking up early to beat that rising sun is a challenge, but so so worth it! And these women were so incredible to work with! Guided by my amazing friend @caraj814 - whose artistry is unreal to watch as she instructs her students, these two dancers @taylorwarren06 and @mikaelavasconez were so talented and adventurous! What a wonderful session! #dancephotography#virginiaweddingphotographer#creatingart

All the feels. Military moms are a special kind of person, that’s for sure. And Kate is no exception. “I’m excited to raise a kind and empathetic man who knows what strong women look like...He’ll know all about work ethic and dedication to service.” 🙌 Goals for all of us moms! #momswhoinspire#motivationmonday#militarymoms#militarymonday

I’m so happy to say that my summer schedule is filling up fast! I only have a couple openings left until August! If you’re looking to get your family photos updated over the summer, be sure to get in touch with me soon! I’m so grateful for all the support and a honestly couldn’t be more thrilled with how things are going with this little business of mine. Launching a new venture is always intimidating, but I absolutely love what I’m doing and the art I’m able to create with all the wonderful people who have put their trust in me. #capturinglife#creatingart#lisarheaphotography#smallbusiness#lifestylephotography

For some time now I've been working on a project that I'm excited to share it with you on this Mother's Day weekend. "A Tribute to the Woman Who is Mom" celebrates women who are amazing individuals, as well as loving mothers. I'm honored to have had the opportunity to capture these women and share their stories. Please visit my website to view the collection!

It’s been awhile since I’ve introduced myself on here, and I’m honored to have more and more new followers, so I think it’s time for #fridayintroductions . (And of course thanks to all my family and friends who already know all this and follow and support me anyway!)
Here are a few little tidbits about me:
•Rhea is pronounced “Ray” and coincidentally, my middle name is also Rae. So when I married my husband, I became Lisa Rae Rhea, and yes - any time it comes up on the phone or at the DMV or anywhere, it always makes for a laugh. • I ran my first full marathon last year and love being active. This year I’m going to tackle my first triathlon. I’m definitely not naturally athletic and didn’t run my first 5k until my mid-twenties and had to stop and walk during it. Since then I’ve worked on my fitness and now, at 36, I’m in the best shape of my life and I couldn’t imagine not training almost everyday.
• I have two small boys (Corbin who is almost 3 and Aiden who is 19 months) and the one thing I’ve learned from motherhood is never say never. I recently gave in and got the minivan (which I seriously love). I’m going to be the founding member of the “Tattooed Mom’s Minivan Gang” 😂😂😂 📸: my better half @code_name_dad

I’m going to need warm weather back stat! How about this handsome little man to brighten things up? Kabari was seriously the sweetest during this session - and he loved the camera! #summervibes#childhoodwonders

I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a little bummed when we had overcast skies for last night’s senior session. It was at a gorgeous farm and well, while overcast skies are “safe” for photographers, I love to play with light. I had an idea for this shot in the field already, when one of the guys came driving up in a truck kicking up dust. It all came together perfectly. Josh and Cole, walking together as they pass from this stage in life to the next - a perfect senior picture moment. #milestone#classof2019#seniorpictures#takethatsun
